[FileCheck] Added --enable-var-scope option to enable scope for regex variables.
If `--enable-var-scope` is in effect, variables with names that
start with `$` are considered to be global. All other variables are
local. All local variables get undefined at the beginning of each
CHECK-LABEL block. Global variables are not affected by CHECK-LABEL.
This makes it easier to ensure that individual tests are not affected
by variables set in preceding tests.
